WREN Is Name Assigned to
Jackman Mills Radio;
Must Lower
Strength
The radio station of the Jenny Wren Flour company at the Jackman Mills, will be permitted to use the call letters WREN when recorded to word received last night by R. C. Jackman, owner of the mills.
The radio commission of the United States Department of Commerce has given the station a temporary license, but have specified that WREN operate from a 750 watt station. The new station has 'n' 9600 watt transmitter and the specifications made by the radio commission to regulate the down of the power.
The new station has been given a wave length of 275.1 meters which is the same as the wave length of KFKU and they will be allowed to go on the air as long as they do not conflict with KFKU.
KEKU Will Divide Time
KFRU Will Divide Time
"The use of the same wave length by the two Lawrence stations will mean the dividing of the time for broadcasting c, a station operated 27, octers; the Jenny Wren station operated of both stations expect to co-operate at all times and will work together in planning programs and specifying the time for gondling programs," said Towner.
The station at the floor mills were completed during February and since that time programs have been sent on the air after midnight as they were not allowed to send earlier programs until they had secured a location. A standard 6, 1000 watts transmitter made by the Western Electric company was installed and the towers were placed on top of the mill building. The sending station is located on the third floor of the warehouse.
The programs sent on the air by WREN station have been both those of entertainment and of educational value and an effort will be made to obtain best talent broadcasting professionals and train people when possible.
"Only indirect advertising for the Jenny Wren 'Ready Mixed Floir' made by the Jackman mills is to be used," said R. C. Jackman.

Military Department Completes Campaign of Student Education

Training
Members of R. O. T. C. Sta Explain Purpose Behind
Maj. J, R. Cygon of the University of Kansas department of military science and tactics, has recently completed a campaign to educate the students of the University concerning the true purpose of the R. O. T. C on the campuses of American college colleges such as Nold and L. Harry F. Meyers are the speakers who have been conducting the campaign.
Practically all the social organizations and most of the professional fraternities have been visited by one of these men in the last few weeks. A woman in a program conducted," said Major Cyan, "is to combat the surprisingly prevalent impression that the only activity engaged in by students of the military department is drill. As a result, we have barely one-fifth of the work offered.
"Drill is the external, obvious part of the R, O, T, C, work, and this fact probably accounts for the impression that it is the only part of military training. But drill in itself does not receive a great deal of attention. It is the ultimate, indirect results of drill with which the department is concerned. The ability to handle and command men, the instruction toward learning to speak clearly and forcefully, is essential. Only drill is given a place, rather than the mere mechanical learning of military movements.
"The interest of the Reserve office training corps is not to implant militarism in the country, but to create in efficient corps of men who shall be trained for military organization and management in case of necessity. The primary purpose is to fit the men who have received the training to be better officers, and there is no higher or any kind of education can claim."
